Oh, it doesn’t actually have anything directly to do with music.
SourceBook is (or rather, is becoming) a Personal Knowledge Management System. It allows you to organize learning content—whether local videos or YouTube reference clips—into sections within chapters and subchapters, complete with accompanying text documents or supplementary links. Just like a book does.
I actually put a test version of the Web Viewer—which is a component of the system—online a while back, featuring a small Ableton Live project and a feedback questionnaire.

Naturally, I’m still grateful for any feedback I receive (you know the kinds of questions that tend to come up: Does it work properly across all browsers? Does the player run smoothly? How is the navigation? …).
In any case, I’ve found that while people on Instagram seem quite taken with the concept when I present it there, the bottom line is that comparatively few actually leave the app to go and engage with it. Especially since it doesn’t work on mobile phones—only on desktop (I believe it works on tablets, too, though).
Anyway, I’m not complaining. The people who *did* take the time to check it out were able to provide me with some truly valuable feedback.
So, yes, I understand your predicament here very well. That said, I value this platform highly, and I would be absolutely delighted if the chat were to flourish.
